    You got a good deal, Devil Dog! Based on my experience with my Hopnel frunk bag that I bought in '15, look at the zippers and ascertain whether or not you need to smear some kind of fabric cement...

    It's possible and, IMO highly probable, that the heavily weighted vote for SL is because many of us represent several older generations of avid motorcycle riders who, for one reason or another...

    I share ARtravelers position 100%. Ten years ago when I did a search for Can-Am Spyder users groups, Spyderlovers popped up at the top of the list. The rest is history.

    Welcome! There is an OEM cable that runs rearward under your seat that is specifically a switched cable for a GPS. MY 2022 RT owners can be more specific about exact location on the right side of the...

    If you look at the adverts for the Rykers it's patently obvious BRP is trying to attract younger riders; ergo, a basic lower price roadster. RayBJ's given a basic upgrade list of items in the RT...

    I'm 6'3"+ with long legs. I took a long test ride on a 2016 F3 and that ridge on the bodyside cladding did the same thing to me, hit right on the inside of both knees; darn sore after 25 miles. Have...

    Being a frugal sort, the wife calls it world class cheap, if I had to, I'd opt for a sturdy insulated cooler and ice. My personal preference is a Camelbak.
